PRESIDENTIAL BEES.
Little Political Insects Beginning to
Buzz Vigorously.
THE FEELING ros WHITNEY.
Ex-Secretary’s Course May Depend Upon
the Business Outlook~Matthews to
' Start a Boom—Republicans say
They “rill Win Anyway.
WASHINGTON, J 11110 27.—,—Thc correspond-
ent of the New York Evening Telegram
sends the following to his paper: Ex—Sec-
retary Whitney’s denial that he is a candi-
date for president is taken by the knowing
ones here with a bit of salt much larger
than the proverbial grain. They are not
at all impressed by the denial. Mr. Whit-
ney is noted for‘hi’s sagaciousness, and he
would be anything but sagaeious, say
these same knowing ones, were he to an-
nounce himself a candidate at this early
stage in the game.
Gentlemen-very- intimately associated
with Mr. Whitney say that his exact posi-
tion regarding the presidency is this: If,
by the time the national Democratic com-
mittee meets,“ the outlook for the Democ-
racy is flattering, Whitney will shy his
caster in the ring and strip himself for
the fray. “And, in such event, ” these
gentlemen add, “he will undoubtedly get
the nomination. ”
There is little doubt that Mr. Whitney
is today the most popular man in the,
Democratic party. Not only do the ardent
Cleveland men admire Whitney, but the
anti—Cleveland men think him about the
keenest, ablest and all around best man in
the party‘ranks.
Even the Hill men here admit without
hesitation that it would be wiser to nomi-
nate Whitney than Hill. The latter could
poll a large part of the Democratic vote,
but he could netsccureall of it, whereas
Whitney would poll every vote in the party.
All per wintney.
Such unanimity as characterizes the
Whitney talk here is very remarkable. Old
time Democrats say they do not recall its
like. They add, with much gusto, that it
. argues well for the party when such a feel-
ing exists for any worthy man within its
ranks.
The only thing one bears in the way of
a Democratic doubt of Whitney’s ability
to poll the full party vote is a suggestion
that his kinship to a Standard Oil mag—
nate and his connection with large corpo-
rate interests would be likely to estrange
the farmer vote. But such doubts are
quickly silenced by the observation that
Whitney has no money in the Standard
Oil company, and that the employees of
the large corporate interests with which
he is connected are ready to swear by him
when it comes to expressing an opinion on
popular employers.
All of this, these gentlemenzintimate-
1y associated with him continue, is well
known by Mr. Whitney. ' At the same
time even he himself could not just now
say whether he will be a candidate for the
nomination. If general business picks up
by the next year’s arrival, it will be safe
to predict that he will come out strong for
the nomination. But his disinclination
to lead a forlorn hope is as strong new as
it was a month ago. And should business
suffer another setback he will let some
one else have the nomination.
Republicans Are Confident.
The Republicans here are not discussing
Whitney. They manifest a strong confi-
dence in their ability to elect their nomi-
nee, whoever he may be. They say that
they have no fears from the revival of
business. The present improvement, theyr
declare, is due to last fall’s election, ren-
dering it impossible for the Democratic
party to do anything in a legislative way
to hurt the country in the next congress.
“And so,” they conclude, “we don’t care
who the Democrats nominate.”
Judge (ex—Congressman) Springer, who
has been here attending his son’s wed-
ding, says that if the next congress dou-
bles the beer tax it will be unnecessary to
increase the tax on any other article of
the internal revenue schedule. He is firm
in the conviction that the deficiency in the
national revenue would be amply supplied
with the extra $30,000, 000 which would be
derived from a $2 tax on beer.
“Who would pay it?”
“The consumer, of course. The brewers
would simply add a dollar to the present
price, and the saloon keeper would get in
a supply of smaller glasses, so as to take
oif in quantity enough to equal the very~
slight difference the increase would make
in the cost of a glass of beer.”
Matthews and the Presidency.

' Procession Half a Mile lLong.
NEW HAVEN, J unc 27.—Fivc hundred
and seventy-five Yale Seniors today re-
ceived their diplomas at the final com-
mencement exercises Of the university,

announced last winter. There was no vale-
llictorian, no salutatorian and no speaking
for the Townsend prizes.
The seniors of all departments assem-
bled on the campus at 10:30 o’clock this
morning and headed b Professor Gustave
C. Schwab as marsha and a brass band,
marched through the green back to Battell
chapel where the commencement exercises
took place, instead of in the center of the
church as heretofore.
Behind the band came the academic,
then the scientific, next the medical and
law seniors and behind them were the
Yale corporation, the faculty and the
alumni, who are back for reunions. The
procession was over half a mile long.

BR®OKLYN’S MYSTERY
M
Superintendent McKelvey Thinks That
William Will Confess.
LOOKING INTO HIS RECORD.
Bad Son’s Past Life Is Being Rigidly In-
vestigated—“Badger Steve” Is Alleged
to Be an Important Witness
Against the Accused.
BROOKLYN, June 27.-—W1th one sole ob-
ject in view, the conviction of William
Henry of the murder of his father, the old
miser, Charles W. Henry, who Was found
with his head crushed in at his home, 95
South Portland avenue, on Friday, two
weeks ago, the police have abandoned all
other theories and clews. They are grasp-
ing at every straw that shows how bad a
son the young man was, the only apparent
reason being to manufacture public senti-
ment against the accused. The latest
move was to go to New York and interest
the police of that city in obtaining that
kind of evidence.
Beyond a chain of circumstantial evi-
dence, which William’s lawyer declares
can be easily shattered, the police have
got nothing whatever of a direct nature to
connect the accused man with the murder
of his father. '
A breeze has been caused by the fact
that the New York city police had found
a man W119, it was hoped, would prove a
The man, ac—
cording to the police, is “Badger Steve,”
who declares he met William in an Eighth
avenue restaurant, kept by a man named
Burns, on the Thursday night which Wil-
liam says he spent in Prospect park.
”Badger Steve” does not bear an envia-
ble reputation, and he is already known
to have told a few conflicting stories as to
the time and the day he met William. He
said first it was about two weeks ago from
yesterday, and if this should prove correct
it would mean nothing, as the old miser
5 is known to have been alive after that
day.
“Badger Steve’s” Other Story.
If, however, he really did see the mur-
dered man's “bad son” on Thursday, the
day the old man is supposed to have been
killed, the evidence would be important.
The statement of Steve is that when he
saw William in Burns’ restaurant the ac-
cused man had a‘ big roll of bills, which
he was spending freely. He had been
drinking wine, and Steve had some of it.
He asked William for $1, but was refused.
Thereupon Steve left him with the remark
that William was “no good.”
Steve was taken to Raymond Street jail
yesterday, it is said, and there he posi—
tively identified William as the man he
had seen spending thgmoney so freely in
Burns’ place. It was on Thursday night
that William said he had slept in Prospect
park because he did not have enough
money to pay for a bed.
The police say that Miser Henry kept a.
small amount of money—$50 or so—in a
cigar box in the closet of his house as
well as the strong box in which most of
his valuables were kept. Superintendent
McKelvey claims that William after com-
mitting the murder stole that amount of
money. ’15-;
So confident is he of all this” that he
hopes to force a confession from William
before the case is even called in the police
court on July 15. William sees the papers
every day and is made fully divare‘ef the
fact that a microscope is being turned on
his past life.
